Just as a matter of interest has anybody pitched a collab and how did they get on? I have not heard of any collabs being pitched so I would assume the figures are quite low compared to the huge amount of collabs written. Interesting to hear peoples reasons for writing collabs apart from just a fun exercise and why they would not consider pitching...some might not even know anyone to pitch to.
The comment about online dating brought a smile to my face. Writing a collab here is a bit like online dating...you never know who you will meet, what sort of relationship you will have and how things will turn out in the end. Will it be happy ever after, end in divorce or will you even get past first base.
One thing for sure it is always a learning experience. LOL
